Biography

I began teaching while finishing my MA at Portland State University. After I graduated, I continued as an adjunct instructor at Portland State University and the Art Institute of Portland, where I taught a variety of courses (some of which included: Developmental Writing, Professional Communication, and Gender Theory). Beyond the classroom, I regularly worked with students in the tutoring center. I also consistently met with other faculty to develop better ways to engage first-year students in the classroom and in the school community. I moved to the Inland Northwest and started teaching at Eastern Washington University in 2013. My only regret so far is that I didn't purchase snow boots before I moved to Cheney.
